If your nonprofit is serious about finding new corporate support, or increasing the level of assistance from existing business donors, then the three-day New Strategies conference in Charleston, SC (April 15-18, 2012) needs to be a top priority.
BNS helps companies plan and implement strategies that yield benefits to both society and the corporate donor. A BNS exercise called the Seven Elements of Intelligent Company Grantmaking is widely used to assess corporate philanthropy effectiveness.
BNS is the nation's top resource for helping develop strong business and nonprofit alliances. Whether keynoting a nonprofit's annual meeting or facilitating a corporate foundation board retreat, BNS brings decades of experience to a nonprofit organization.
Many workshops and forums address general fund-raising techniques. However, there is absolutely no education opportunity other than the New Strategies conference that so sharply focuses on how, when, and where nonprofit organizations can secure company contributions and employee volunteer or other pro bono services.
Led by one of the nation's leading authorities on corporate philanthropy, the conference gives attendees practical, how-to-do-it input on scouting out corporate prospects and crafting appeals that have the highest odds for success.
Charleston, South Carolina, is the venue for New Strategies. Consistently among the top 10 travel destinations in America and ranked "America's Friendliest City" by Travel & Leisure, Charleston provides an ideal backdrop for the New Strategies event.
